- Hey so on my Pcs/laptop I use extensions to limit tabs which, somehow, helps with my ADHD. There isn’t an ios app that has this option to my knowledge. So i tried Orion and a few chrome/firefox apps that do this. They work, until they don’t.
- Something (I don’t know what) just makes the mechanism to automatically close the tab not work after enough times. This includes uninstalling and reinstalling the extension, as well as turning the extension on and off. These are a few I’ve tried:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/rudolf-fernandes/ same one i use on desktop. limits to 13 tabs by default but suddenly stops.
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/tab-limit/djdcpjfmniidpdaalloiipgjphgikejl same as above
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/tab-limiter/pbpfchnddjilendkobiabenojlniemoh never worked, i could list others but they also havent worked to begin with so it seems like a waste of time. im more wondering about the ones that did, but stopped suddenly
- if i have to guess, the cause might be a tab opens another tab (not me opening a new tab using orions ui) which goes past the limit and just breaks the extension. but im not sure
- safari doesnt allow these types of extensions, so not applicable
I dont know the technicalities of how each extension works under the hood, but after reaching the tab limit specified, the most recent tab is automatically closed
